About YÆKS
Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Definitely making music with my friends off a gaming headset and Audacity. Those were beautiful memories and humbling at the same time. I've come a long way from that and I'm excited to see where music takes me.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Kenny Segal, billy woods, Hiding Places Kenny Segal, billy woods, Maps billy woods, Terror Management These three albums touch a lot on humanity in general. Terror Management talks about our morality and how people cope knowing they are going to die. A lot of that project inspired 'Sinkholes'. Maps and hiding places have a sense of vulnerability.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “N Pt. 2” I made this song and the entire album 'DYING SUN' at an important time of my life. I was going through a lot at the time and was able to channel that pain through the music. It's definitely the top 5 songs I've ever made and reflects who I am.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? The Making Of B.I.V.O.G. I would be in the car a lot listening to the project and It's the longest I've taken on art. I was also the most focused at the time; going to church greatly influenced the work. I felt it was the best way to debut.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I would love to enhance my music further through visual presentation. Every era of mine paints a different picture. Sinkholes is dark and suffocating while Dying Sun is free and vibrant despite both touching on topics of depression and isolation.
